I had a background in art, which I’d loved since childhood but I only took up painting “seriously” after I retired. I get a lot of my inspiration from my surroundings. I work with a variety of mediums and love experimenting.

Making art is an itch that has to be scratched. I make art everyday, sometimes painting, usually print making, always drawing. My inspiration comes from everywhere, mostly landscapes, usually from the where I live. Recently, scale has become part of the process, and current works are small. What interests me as much as the image I make, when I print, is the process used to make it, using lino cut techniques and tools, some conventional, some not. However, as always, when the paper is about to be lifted, there is the anticipation and then the moment of surprise when the image is revealed.

I have loved working with fabrics ever since I could reach the pedal of my mother’s sewing machine. Now I re-purpose fabrics making bags, aprons, cushions and just recently a unique collect of fun silk buttons.
